What Is WrongWith My Roof?
Six things we get called out for more than anything else. Choose the one you can see and we will tell you what it usually is and which job fixes it.
Likely cause
Usually a slipped or cracked tile, or failed lead around a chimney or valley. The stain is rarely under the hole: water runs along a rafter before it drops. We trace it back rather than guess.
Usually the job is
Roof Repairs
Likely cause
The nails or the tile clips have gone, and if one has moved the ones around it are usually loose too. Worth doing quickly, because the gap lets wind under the rest of the row.
Usually the job is
Roof Repairs
Likely cause
Nearly always the lead flashing where the stack meets the roof, or open mortar joints in the stack itself. It gets blamed on the roof and it is almost never the roof.
Usually the job is
Chimney Repairs
Likely cause
Either blocked, or sagging so the fall runs the wrong way, or the joints have opened. Left alone it soaks the wall below and you get damp inside.
Usually the job is
Fascias, Soffits & Guttering
Likely cause
Standing water means the falls are wrong or the outlet is blocked. Bubbles mean water is already under the covering. Both are fixable, but not by patching over the top.
Usually the job is
Flat Roofing
Likely cause
If you can see light you can get water. Sometimes it is one missing slate, sometimes the felt underneath has perished and the whole slope is nearing the end of its life. We will tell you which.

Why Marley
Six ReasonsPeople Call Back.

What backs this up
- We go up, and into the loft where we can, before a price is written
- The four steps of every job, from the first call to the last photograph
- A repair is quoted as a repair; a roof only when it is genuinely at the end
What backs this up
- Itemised: scaffold, materials, labour, disposal, lead and anything already known about underneath
- Anything found once the roof is open is photographed and priced before we carry on
- What moves the price of a roof repair, explained without a sales pitch
What backs this up
- Photographs of what we found, what we did and the finished roof, sent to you
- Every picture on the previous work page is one of those photographs
How it works
From a Photo on Your Phoneto a Finished Roof.
Four steps, and the same four whether it is one tile or a whole roof. Nothing is added to the price after we start without a photograph and your say so.
- 01
Call or Send a Photo
Call the office or send a picture from your phone. Even a shot taken from the garden usually tells us what we are dealing with.
- 02
A Proper Inspection
We inspect the roof properly, inside and out where we need to, and take pictures of anything you cannot see.
- 03
A Written Quote
One price, itemised, no obligation. If a repair will do the job we will say so rather than sell you a new roof.

What it costs
What Moves the Priceof a Roof Repair.
Scaffold or Ladders
A single slipped tile on a bungalow can be a ladder job. Anything more, or anything two storeys up, needs scaffold, and that is often the biggest single line on a small repair.
How Much Is Coming Off
Replacing a few tiles is a morning. Stripping a slope back to the rafters, re felting and re battening is a different job with a different price.
What the Roof Is Made Of
Concrete interlocking tiles are the cheapest to match. Natural slate, clay plain tiles and anything hand made cost more and take longer to lay.
The Details That Take Time
Valleys, chimneys, dormers and hips take the time. A plain rectangular roof is quick; a roof with four chimneys and two valleys is not.
What We Find Underneath
Rotten battens or a perished felt change the job. We photograph anything we find and price it before we carry on, never after.
Whether It Is an Emergency
Making a roof safe at ten at night in the rain is a different job from booking it in for next Tuesday. We will always tell you if it can wait.

Questions
Roofing and RoofRepair Questions.
If yours is not here, call 01372 540 258 and ask. You will get a roofer, not a call centre.
Do you charge for a quote?
No. Quotes and leak inspections are free, and there is no obligation to go ahead. If we think a repair will do rather than a new roof, we will tell you that.
Can you come out in an emergency?
Yes. We run a 24 hour emergency call out for leaks, storm damage and fallen tiles. We make the roof safe and watertight first, then quote for the permanent repair.
How long does a new roof take?
A typical house re roof takes around one to two weeks once the scaffold is up, depending on the size of the roof and the weather. We will give you a timeline with your quote.
Do I need scaffolding?
For anything more than a small repair, yes. Scaffold is safer and it lets us work faster, which usually costs less overall. It is included in the quote so there are no surprises.
How much does a roof repair cost?
It depends on whether the job needs scaffold, how much of the roof is coming off and what it is covered in. A single slipped tile reached from a ladder is a small job. A slope stripped back to the rafters is not. We survey first and give you one itemised written price, and it is free either way.
Do I need a repair or a whole new roof?
Most roofs we are called to do not need replacing. If the covering is sound and the problem is one failed detail, a repair is the right answer and it is what we will quote for. We will tell you when a roof is genuinely at the end, and show you photographs of why.
How long does a roof last?
Concrete interlocking tiles usually 40 to 60 years, natural slate often a century or more, clay plain tiles similar. The covering normally outlives the felt and battens underneath it, which is why an older roof can look fine from the ground and still be letting water in.
Why is my roof only leaking in heavy rain?
Wind driven rain gets under a covering that copes fine with rain falling straight down. It usually points at a failed detail rather than a failed roof: lead around a chimney, a valley, or a gap where two slopes meet.
Do you work on commercial buildings?
Yes. Our Confederation of Roofing Contractors listing covers domestic and commercial, and we do flat roofs, industrial sheeting and cladding as well as houses.
Which areas do you cover?
We are based in Leatherhead and work across Surrey and South West London, from Dorking, Epsom and Reigate through Kingston and Wimbledon into Clapham, Battersea and Wandsworth.
What are you a member of?
We are a member of the Confederation of Roofing Contractors, member number 8125, and a checked and monitored member of Checkatrade. You can also read our reviews on Google, Trustpilot and MyBuilder.
